Buprenorphine is used in a type of treatment known as medication assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals in Bellport who are opiate dependent to prescription pain killers or heroin. Unlike Methadone which is also used in medication assisted treatment but is only allowed to be administered in highly structured clinics, Buprenorphine can be prescribed and dispensed by qualifying doctors which provides more people with access to this type of treatment.
When Buprenorphine is used in treatment it can help someone who is going through the intense cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Buprenorphine helps to control and minimize these withdrawal symptoms so that they can stay off drugs and not engage in harmful drug seeking behaviors. When the medication assisted treatment idea was first conceived and perpetuated, it wasn't meant to be a stand-alone activity but rather only part of a "whole-patient" treatment plan that would also incorporate actual rehabilitation for opioid dependency and addiction recovery. Buprenorphine use would only be one piece of a bigger all-encompassing plan.
Buprenorphine will also cause some of the euphoric effects of other opiate narcotics so it can be misused. For this reason it is important for anyone choosing medication assisted treatment as the recovery plan they prefer to take, to also enlist the help of professional addiction counselors to incorporate other methods of behavioral therapy and life repair programs into their plan of rehabilitation so that they are not at risk of relapse.
